My Project

Dear Donors,

Trying to help students stay organized can be a challenge.

Many of our students have needs outside of school that are far greater than the needs for basic school supplies. There are times that the needs can be subtle while at other times the needs can be poignant. As a proactive teacher, I am seeking help to minimize the difference between the students who "have" and the students who "have not." Please help me to provide composition notebooks and three-prong folders for every student assigned to my classroom.

Ms. Garcia
Grades 3-5
